3 Reasons to Finally Complete Your Unfinished Garage

If you’ve been living with an unfinished garage, how’s that working out for you? Do you keep the door closed all the time because you’re a little embarrassed by its interior? Have your heating and cooling bills risen because your attached garage doesn’t have any insulation? Would you like to get more use out of the space than you currently are?

If you’re nodding your head right now, our team at Sussel Garages would be more than happy to help you create the custom garage you’ve always wanted. But, since you haven’t yet taken measures to complete your garage, perhaps you need a little convincing. Let’s dive into just a handful of the many reasons you should finish your garage and how you stand to benefit when you do.

Better Vehicle Protection

Are you currently parking in your garage? If not, do you want to park in there but there’s currently too much clutter crowding up the space? Whether you’re parking indoors now or you want to but can’t, finishing up your custom garage is in your best interest. Why? Because:

●        You can add additional floor space to the garage to accommodate your vehicle plus all the stuff you want to store.

●        Completing your unfinished garage by adding insulation and perhaps a heating and cooling source will allow you to provide your vehicles with enhanced protection during winter.

●        You can opt for storage or attic trusses above the garage, which will provide considerable storage space while freeing up floor space for your vehicles and other pricey motorized toys you want to park in there.

Improved Energy Efficiency

If your work-in-progress garage has been unfinished for some time and it doesn’t have insulation, insulated windows, or an insulated garage door, you’re losing a lot of heat through the space. That’s especially true if you have an attached garage and it shares a wall with your living spaces.

Hiring a garage builder to help you with your windows, garage doors, and insulation can help you save a considerable amount of money on your annual energy expenses. A properly insulated garage doesn’t just provide better protection for whatever you keep in there; it’s also far more comfortable to spend time in if you want to use the space for activities or projects.

Boost Your Property Value

Having a garage automatically boosts your property value, but having a finished custom garage can increase the value of your home even more. How much? It’s difficult to pin down an exact figure without knowing the custom features your finished garage might have. That said, it’s safe to say that completing an unfinished garage can add several thousand dollars to your overall property value.

That’s especially true if you opt to include high-quality extras like floor coating, insulated windows, an insulated garage door, heating, and storage space above the garage.
